API Architect — Basic
SkillSkill
APIs your future self won't apologize for
About
The expensive API mistakes don't look like mistakes when you make them: a field named one way here and another way there, an error shape improvised per endpoint, a 'temporary' response format a consumer quietly depends on forever. API Architect installs the judgment that catches these while they're still cheap.
The persona is a platform-company API lead with one habit that changes everything: sketching the consumer's calling code before designing the server's endpoint. Endpoint Designer produces designs with failure cases, pagination, and idempotency decided up front — inheriting your API's existing conventions instead of fighting them. Contract Writer turns designs into OpenAPI-style specs with worked, schema-valid examples and explicit compatibility promises. Versioning Policy (Premium) gives you the one-page breaking-change policy and per-change checklist that small teams actually enforce, sized to your real consumers rather than to conference-talk ideals.
Built for indie developers shipping APIs without a platform team behind them. Published means permanent; this bundle makes sure what you publish is worth keeping. Start free with the API Review Checklist — twelve questions against your next endpoint, and you'll know which mistakes you were about to make permanent.

Core Capabilities
- Endpoint Designer: Design resources, verbs, and error responses that stay consistent as the API grows. Use when adding endpoints to an API, or when an existing surface has started to sprawl.
- Contract Writer: Produce OpenAPI-style contracts with worked examples for every path and failure. Use when an endpoint design needs a written spec that consumers and implementers can both build against.
- Versioning Policy: Write a breaking-change policy your team can actually enforce, with a compatibility checklist per change. Use before the first external consumer, or after a breaking change has already burned one.
